Joan Baez "East Virginia" Songtext

East Virginia

I was born in east VirginiaNorth Carolina I did roamThere I met a pretty fair maidenHer name and age I do not know

Her hair it was of a bright some colorAnd her lips of a ruby redOn her breast she wore white liliesThere I longed to lay my head

Well in my heart you are my darlingAnd at my door you're welcome inAt my gate I'll meet you my darlingIf your love I could only win

I'd rather be in some dark hollerWhere the sun refused to shineThan to see you be another man's darlingAnd to know that you'll never be mine

Well in the night I'm dreaming about youIn the day I find no restJust the thought of you my darlingSends aching pains all through my breast

Well when I'm dead and in my coffinWith my feet turned toward the sunCome and sit beside me darlingCome and think on the way you done
